AI client check-ins that never say 'just checking in'

AI client check-ins keep past clients warm without you carrying a mental list of who you owe a note. In Orbit, you ask Hiro to draft a personal check-in for any past client quiet 30 or more days, capped at one a month per contact. The phrase 'just checking in' is out. You approve, edit, or dismiss every draft before it sends.

Ask Hiro to notice the drift

Past clients are where repeat business comes from, and they are the easiest people to lose by accident. Nobody decides to forget a client. The quarter just fills. Ask Hiro to make the drift stop being invisible.

Hiro watches for past clients silent for 30 or more days. For each, it drafts a personal check-in with something real in it: a thread pulled from your history together, not filler. Two rules shape every draft: no contact hears from you more than once a month, and the phrase 'just checking in' stays out. Orbit is a free personal and business CRM, so your whole history lives in one place for Hiro to draw on.

What Hiro does here

  • Watches for past clients quiet for 30 or more days.
  • Drafts a personal check-in grounded in your actual history with them.
  • Caps outreach at one check-in a month per contact, no exceptions.
  • Keeps the phrase 'just checking in' out of every draft.
  • Queues each draft as a suggestion you approve, edit, or dismiss.
  • Logs every sent check-in on the contact timeline.

Approval-gated by design

The limits are the feature. One check-in a month per contact, maximum. Thirty days of silence before anyone is even considered. And every draft waits as a suggestion until you approve it, so a client never receives a message you did not read first.

Orbit applies that approval rule to everything Hiro does, from a check-in to an invoice reminder. Nothing auto-sends. AI is included on every plan with free monthly credits, no API key to paste, and paid plans can bring their own key when credits run out.

Frequently asked questions

What are AI client check-ins?+

They are short personal messages an AI assistant drafts to keep past clients warm. In Orbit, you ask Hiro to draft one for past clients quiet 30 or more days, capped at one a month per contact, and you approve each before it sends.

Will Hiro spam my old clients?+

No. Hiro is capped at one check-in a month per contact, only considers clients quiet 30 or more days, and every draft requires your approval to send. Nothing auto-sends.

Why avoid the phrase 'just checking in'?+

Because it signals you had no real reason to write. Hiro drafts around something concrete from your history with the client, which is what makes a check-in feel personal instead of automated.

Do I see the message before it goes out?+

Always. Hiro's drafts land as suggestions in Orbit, and you approve, edit, or dismiss each one. Nothing in Orbit auto-sends.

What does the AI cost?+

AI is included on every plan with free monthly credits, no API key to paste. You can top up with credit packs, and Pro ($14/mo) can bring its own key when credits run out.
